Acts Of Affection

“Finally, something we can agree on.”

“I’m not ashamed to admit it…”

Katsuki sneered wide as the inkling of a blush crossed his face. “I’d let Deku crush me with his thighs.” It’d be his ideal way to die. 

Rody was basically curling in on himself with guilt. The other wasn’t even... questioning him... He trusted him that much? Damn it. Pino noticeably drooped like a withering plant. His heart felt like it was being yanked this way and that as he listened to the blonde talk about his own family.

“I’m sure your family knew right away that you were innocent.” He glanced back at the phonebooth, gray eyes searching for blue. “I understand needing to hear a loved one’s voice in a situation like this. My little sister and brother are waiting for me back at home. Just hearing their voices would ease my worries.” If only they had a phone back at their trailer. He would have called them over the cops.

Rody looked up at the boy in front of him, biting his bottom lip in nervousness. “You’re right.” He stood up, case in hand, looking towards the sound of the helicopter. It was getting closer. “There’s some tall grass around here. Maybe we can lay down and they won’t notice.” The phonebooth could have also sufficed, but Rody knew he would have to wave the helicopter down and didn’t want his accomplice in plain sight in a glass box.

Rody was the one who called the cops. He didn’t want the other involved in what could possibly go down.

He gestured to a tall patch of grass farther away from where they currently stood. “Go hide over there. I’ll go over here.” He vaguely gestured in the opposite direction, starting to walk to his hiding area.

@rody-soul​ plotted out a starter!

Tired... Neito was just so tired.

It all started late last night. After being flown to the small nation of Otheon with the troublemaking students of Class 1-A, Neito already knew that somehow things were going to go wrong. It all started with a bank robbery that the other students instantly rushed into. Honestly, Neito almost let them handle it to finish their required task. After all, bringing back food and supplies back to the base was actually important, no matter how much Bakugou moaned and complained over it.

Before Neito could stop himself, he found himself running towards the situation. Neito and Izuku left the two attacking robbers to Todoroki and Bakugou, while they both persued the running man with a briefcase. While Izuku was brash, running directly for the escaping man, Neito instead watched him with careful eyes. With a bit of street savviness, Neito slipped into a leaving train. Thankfully, just a few minutes later, so did their suspect. Neito could see Midoriya in the distance, but before he could start running towards the train, a rather irritated looking train conductor quickly yanked him off the train tracks. Before Midoriya could pursue them, the train was long gone.

Watching the brown haired suspect take a sigh of relief, Neito couldn’t help but laugh, waving his hand towards the other, “I suppose you think you got away? I wouldn't get so comfortable if I were you.”

Wow.... that all felt so recent. Blinking his tired eyes, Neito quickly remembered everything else- the briefcase being empty of any sort of treasure and just filled with important paperwork. Being chased by the police, using Todoroki’s quirk to escape while keeping everyone safe in the process. After jumping into the water, Neito quickly ditched his phone and began walking. Quickly, the quirks that were once filled in his body were gone. Leaving the blond basically quirkless and defenseless.

That’s what led to him and the other male now trying to sleep in a barn. Neito wasn’t sure how the bird in front of him could keep up with them all day- the blond was sure he didn’t see the creature eat or drink. However, Neito didn’t have the energy to ponder that aloud. Instead, with a single hand on the briefcase, Neito fell into in a deep sleep. After all, he was just so exhausted.

Pino!! 💖💛💜

After the envelope was taken, Pino settled down in her favorite resting spot: Izuku’s hair. The nervousness Rody felt was still present, but the pride he felt being able to surprise Deku this much was amazing.

He laughed, nerves mixed within it. He would be rubbing his neck if he had a free hand. “No, it’s all for Pino, obviously.” Rody playfully kicked the red mess’s leg. “Of course it’s all for you! Who else would I buy all this lovey-dovey stuff for? Though, if you want all of this...” He gestured with his head at the envelope Izuku was holding.

“...You have to open that first.”

@rody-soul​ said: “Deku!” He called out as Pino flew ahead of him with a small envelope in her beak, almost crashing into the green-haired hero. “You’re surprisingly a tough guy to find.” He came to a stop a few feet from Izuku. Rody had a red metal tin in his hands, as well as an All Might themed box of chocolates. Floating alongside him was a red heart-shaped balloon. Was the balloon too much? It was, wasn’t it? “Um… I never really… Got to celebrate this sort of occasion, so I hope what I have is alright.”

Izuku was on his way to the dorms when Pino practically flew straight at him! He gasped from surprise. “P-Pino!” 

He took the envelope from her mouth and looked up when he saw Rody and all of the gifts that were in his hands. 

Immediately, his face practically bled red. Steam practically came out of his ears and a brief high-pitched whine fell from his lips. “R-Rody…?!” Swallowing hard, he approached his boyfriend. “Y-you got all of this for me?!” 

How was he supposed to react to this?! He’d never gotten a Valentine’s Day gift before! Much less, not from someone he was dating! Ah! It felt like his heart was about to beat out of his chest!

"Again, thank you." Doesn't everyone love being insulted like this? From the spot in Rody's ponytail, Pino was starting to rustle around. Rody knew he didn't have an incredibly impressive quirk, but maybe, just maybe, Bakugou was getting on his nerves. A little.

"Wow, good job, Hero, I guess you are smarter than you look."

At least he got a laugh back. Now they were even.

“Sorry, hero, but I’ve already got one.” He playfully nudged the shorter of the two, sending a wink his way. “Might wanna hurry and catch up.”

@rody-soul​ said:

"Maybe because you are one-" Rody mumbled real quietly, holding back a laugh. All tease, of course.

“Wha-?! Rody!” Izuku gasped, fake-offended. Unfortunately, his voice cracked over Rody’s name.

Why is no one talking about Alan Kay. This man can hold so much potential in him. Last we saw him, he was in a coma, but he knew Rody's dad. What happens when he wakes up? (Just some quick doodles cause I needed to get these thoughts out)

...

“Why isn’t there a Deku one?”

i'll let deku know you asked that

"Wh- Hey! I didn't say anything!"

        Peering at Pino as Rody explained that she could be a little troublemaker, somehow Momo had a hard time believing that just from a first impression glance. “This little one getting into trouble? What kind of trouble could she possibly get into aside from maybe playing with someone’s food?”

        “But that’s sweet you’ve had her almost your entire life. Was she a wild bird that just happened to befriend you or did you get her as a present?” Her coloring suggested she could be wild, but admittedly Momo wasn’t too familiar with things to do with birds.

A soft laugh came from Rody. “That’s a good example right there.” He held Pino up in his hand as if to analyze her. “Don’t let her looks fool you, though. Being this small allows her to be as sneaky as she wants. I wouldn’t be surprised if everyone’s hair ties started to go missing.”

“I got her as a gift from my dad.” Rody was relieved to have these sort of answers on hand. “I believe she’s some sort of finch or a warbler. But you definitely don’t see her kind of coloring a lot.” He lowered his arm back down to chest level, glancing between Momo and Pino.

“Did ya want to pet her?”
